Dryer anti-static sheets
How many of you use dryer anti-static sheets to reduce "static cling" of powder in powder measures, scale pans and funnels?

Is it OK to wipe the inside of a plastic powder measure (such as the RCBS Chargemaster) and the inside of an aluminum powder funnel? Is there a risk that any of the chemicals in the static-free dryer sheets might affect the usual Hodgdon, VV or Alliant powders?

Does anyone have other methods to reduce the powder clinging to the powder measures and funnels, especially the fine-grained powders such as Hodgdon H335?

I sure use a piece of one as you noted. Keep it tucked twixt cover and hopper externally on the powder measure of the day. I don't know about chemically, but it magically removes tell-tale static cling from even the tiniest of grains and plastic.

yep, they work. they also work very well in a tumbler to keep things not-so-messy - the brass in my observation comes out cleaner.

Sure do. My Lyman 1200 was acting kinda goofy and I called the factory and the lady had me wipe the whole thing down with a anti-cling sheet. Fixed it right up.
Some of that stuff you can run thru the dish washer. I wouldn't suggest an electronic powder scale, of course.
